"Deconstruction is really domineering and efficient in searching for knowledge. I, a person who doesn't even have an alchemy stone, actually directly obtained the alchemy blueprints of the "Supreme Computing Power" alchemy set!
"There must be everything in this book! After all, it is a limited luxury edition. You can't just use a few pictures to fool people. Tsk, tsk, tsk, what's the difference between this and driving a Lamborghini first without getting a driver's license."
Li Nuo was filled with emotion.
He held the book he had just received under his elbow and slowly walked towards Iron Thorn Shield's company building.
Click with your mind to open the book "Alchemy Set: Supreme Calculation Power".
Li Nuo simply glanced at the catalog and felt dazzled, just like a primary school student studying linear algebra, calculus, probability theory and mathematical statistics.
The overwhelming number of alchemical symbols, pronouns, and technical terms were forced into my eyes and stirred rapidly in my mind.
Li Nuo's body shook slightly, and his stomach twitched and twitched.
Before he could spit it out, he forcibly closed the "Supreme Computing Power".
"...Oh my God...yue~...I just glanced at the catalog, so I won't feel nauseous and vomited..."
Li Nuo held his stomach and stood on the street, supporting the wall with his hands.
He faced the graffiti-covered wall and took a few slow breaths to suppress the discomfort in his stomach and the dizziness in his mind.
【system information:】
[You try to read "Alchemy Arms: Supreme Computing Power". 】
[Due to the insufficient "Spirit" attribute, you are unable to understand the extraordinary knowledge in the book, and therefore suffer a mental shock and enter a state of mild dizziness. 】
[System reminder:]
[You have obtained its panel information by deconstructing this book. Please confirm your "spiritual" attribute and meet the reading requirements displayed on the panel information before reading. 】
Li Nuo gently rubbed his temples a few times to calm down from his mild dizziness.
He glanced at the information sent by the system and knew that he had just made a mistake that every man would make.
Facing the ultimate temptation of the alchemy suit, he was too impulsive.
I didn't even look at the panel information of "Supreme Computing Power", so I just opened the book and looked it up.
Fortunately, there was no dirty content recorded in this book, otherwise his reckless browsing just now would have caused him a lot of trouble.
"Well... this is a lesson that must be remembered. I must keep in mind that in this world, the price required to obtain extraordinary power is probably life and soul. From now on, I must develop good habits. Check the panel information in the decomposition results first and make sure there are no side effects before reading any books that will bring extraordinary power."
Li Nuo opened his hood, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and continued walking towards the company building.
He did some operations in his mind, swept aside all the books he had just acquired, and then called up the panel information of these books to read.
"Basic Encyclopedia of Philosopher Particles"
Reading requirements: "Spirit" ≥ 20 points.
"Basic Alchemical Theory"
Reading requirements: "Spirit" ≥15 points.
"A Brief History of Alchemy in the Gold Federation"
Reading requirements: "Spirit" ≥10 points.
"Alchemy Arms: Supreme Computing Power"
Reading requirements: "Spirit" ≥90 points.
…
Li Nuo now has 16 "Spirit" points, just enough to understand "Basic Theory".
He clicked on "Basic Theory" and at the same time opened "Basic Encyclopedia of Philosopher Particles" which requires 20 "Spirit" points to understand.
Comparing the two together, Li Nuo noticed something strange.
"Basic Theory" has been deconstructed by him once, and all the contents in the book have been engraved in his mind and will never be forgotten.
Li Nuo read it very easily. He could even think of the next sentence when he saw the previous sentence.
Here comes the magical place.
According to his previous deconstruction experience, after he finished deconstructing the "Basic Encyclopedia of Philosopher Particles", he should have engraved the knowledge in this book into his mind.
But now, when he was reading, he felt very obscure and could not remember the content of the book at all. It was completely different from the experience of reading "Basic Theory".
"Is this the system's protection mechanism? In order to prevent me from being overwhelmed by extraordinary knowledge, the system deliberately blocked the knowledge that I couldn't understand to protect my brain."
The more Li Nuo thought about it, the more he felt it was a possibility.
Otherwise, the system would not specifically mark the "Reading Requirements" column on the panel.
Li Nuo crossed the company door while thinking, and met Conte who was chatting with the lady at the front desk.
"Li Lei, I'm just waiting for you."
Conte waved the milky white document in his hand:
"This is a contract protected by the Alchemy Temple. Please take a look at it first. If you think it's okay, you can sign it now. Your identity card has been prepared and I can give it to you at any time."
Li Nuo threw the deconstruction technique at the contract in the opponent's hand, and took the contract while secretly shocked.
This contract linked to the Alchemy Temple requires more than 1,000 energy points to deconstruct, which is very unusual.
As soon as he bought it, Li Nuo noticed something different.
The paper used in the contract feels like cloth, with tough material, fine texture, and soft texture, as if it is not afraid of fire, water, or knife cuts.
Scanning the text above again, the gorgeous yet dignified printed fonts come into view.
After reading it carefully, Li Nuo understood the binding force of this contract.
simply put:
When he signs this contract, an alchemical mark will be attached to his body by the contract.
If he fulfills his contract, then after the contract content in the contract is fulfilled, the contract will be destroyed, and the alchemical mark on his body will disappear.
If he breaks the appointment, the Gold Merchant's Guild will dispatch the "Gold Merchant's Sword" to hunt him down. The clue used in the pursuit is the alchemical mark on his body.
Li Nuo blinked as he looked at the contract in front of him, and his mind suddenly opened up...
"Head, I have a question." Li Nuo asked while reading:
"Is it possible that the alchemy mark mentioned in the contract has been counterfeited or modified? Don't get me wrong, I'm just wondering whether the defaulter will transfer his alchemy mark to someone else and let the other party give it to him. A situation where you take the blame.”
After listening to this, Conte smiled heartily and said:
"This is impossible. You can think of the alchemy mark as a lock. The alchemy runes used to make the alchemy mark are the materials, craftsmanship and password of the lock. The alchemy mark on the contract is from the alchemy temple. Made by the Great Sage himself. Only the Great Sage himself knows what alchemical runes he carved in the alchemical mark. As long as the counterfeiter's strength is not higher than that of the Great Sage, it is absolutely impossible to decipher the alchemical mark, let alone know the mark. What runes were used, and how were they arranged?”
Li Nuo nodded thoughtfully, picked up the pen, signed the name "Li Lei", and put his thumbprint on it.
A wave of energy that seemed to be absent came from the contract and merged into his thumb, leaving an invisible and intangible alchemical mark on the fingertip.
Conte took out a clean ID card from his pocket and stuffed it into Li Nuo's hand.
Looking at the way the other party looked at his thumb, Conte reminded:
"I believe you won't break your appointment, Li Lei, but I still have to add one thing. It's useless to cut off your thumb. The alchemy mark will be transferred to other parts of your body. Some idiots have done this before..."
Conte waved his hand:
"Let's go, just leave the book at the front desk and come with me to have a drink at 'Money Dreams'. Ah, by the way, I forgot that you can't take off your face mask. Well... then you go over and show up and talk to the security team Just get to know the team members formally."
Li Nuo handed the book to the receptionist who looked at him curiously, then turned around and caught up with Conte:
"Boss, what tasks does our team have in the next seven days?"
Conte pushed open the company door and said while walking on the street:
"Let's rest for three days. Starting on the fourth day, we will set up alchemy facilities to collect powder in sector 7, and we will also check the above-ground and underground streets and sewers. On the seventh day, the city gate will be closed , no one can enter or leave the aggregation city, we must be on standby in the company at all times. The eighth day is the powder spraying day. The whole city is filled with metal powder, and the sun and moon cannot be seen for three consecutive days. If you act outdoors, You must also wear a respirator, otherwise the metal powder will kill you..."
The two walked through the crowds on the street and walked along the bustling street for more than ten minutes before arriving in front of a luxuriously decorated store.
The front of the store is a jet black glass wall that does not leak light.
Flashing glow lamps are hung on the wall, using changing lines to outline the pattern of graceful female figures and wine glasses colliding.
As soon as he saw the front door style of "Money Dreams", Li Nuo knew that this place was not suitable for him.
As one of the five good young people of the new century, he does not smoke, drink, go to bars, go to KTV, or have his feet pinched. He will definitely not be able to stand the atmosphere in "Good Money Dreams."
As for beauty.
Ah.
Even Su Li, who has a peach-shaped figure, he couldn't hold back. What other woman could make his blood boil.
there is none left.
Absolutely not anymore.
"'Money Dream' is a property of the Gold Chamber of Commerce. It has chess and card rooms, bars, guest rooms, hot springs, swimming pools, restaurants, boxing gyms, etc. Anyway, all the leisure and entertainment projects you can think of are here."
Kante stood in front of the door and introduced to Li Nuo beside him:
"Security personnel get a 20% discount on their purchases here and cannot pay on credit. You can find all your usual food and drinks here. If you are not used to living in the dormitory, you can move here. The check-in procedure is simple and the accommodation is Fees are subsidized.”
Li Nuo nodded, "I think the dormitory is pretty good, it's enough."
This is true.
He discovered this the first time he used the public showers and washrooms:
All the facilities are clean and relatively new, not much used.
After walking around the corridor twice, he was basically sure that his colleagues did not live in dormitories, but all lived in "good money dreams."
This just makes the entire dormitory quiet, perfect for reading and exercising.
After listening to Li Nuo's words, Kante put his hands on his hips and grinned:
"Life in the empire has engraved stereotypes and dogmas into our bones. When I first came here, I was just like you. I thought I should save money and leave it to my family or use it to start a family. But later I discovered, How can a girl’s skin be so smooth with the money she saves~”
A graceful female voice came from the crack of the half-open door:
"Oh? Conte, which wild woman are you going to spend your money on? Did you get my consent?"
Conte's face changed, he became embarrassed instantly, and he chuckled guiltily:
"If anything, Cindy, am I not trying to persuade the new little brother to relax? I just think he is too reserved, so that's why I said that..."
"Tch~" The woman named Cindy chuckled.
She was leaning on the door frame, wearing a long black velvet dress that outlined her figure. She wore gemstone accessories that reflected the sun around her neck and wrists, and a thin cigarette was held on her slender white fingers.
This woman named Cindy has the temperament of a mature woman, as if she is a veteran on the battlefield who can easily see through a man's heart.
How do you say that?
The card Beauty is a dead end if played alone.
But when combined with mental skills, it's a sure kill.
Such a woman who knows how to take advantage of her appearance and looks high-status at the same time is definitely not a good person.
Li Nuo was fully vigilant, but when he saw Kante walking forward with a smile on his face, he hugged him...
"Let me introduce you, Li Lei, this is Cindy, the vice-president of 'Money Dreams'. I can only have alchemy weapons without her help."
"Good afternoon, Ms. Cindy." Li Nuo nodded in greeting.
"Look at their wording, Conte. When will you be as polite as this little brother?"
Cindy looked at Li Nuo with a smile:
"Why are you wearing a hijab and sunglasses, Li Lei?"
Conte whispered:
"Don't ask too many questions, Cindy. Li Lei's situation is special."
"Oh~ okay, I can tell you are a handsome guy just by listening to your voice. It's such a pity that I can't see your appearance..."
Cindy turned around, swayed her slender waist, and walked into the store:
"Come with me, you two."
Conte half hugged Cindy and asked:
"Are all my team members here?"
"Except for a few drunkards who drank half to death as soon as they arrived, everyone else has arrived...I heard them say, did you meet the alchemist from the Bulldog Gang this time?"
Conte's tone was slightly solemn:
"Yes, we also encountered a terrible thing. A lair of aberrations appeared in the wild stone wasteland. Well, let's have a celebration party first, so that those guys won't wait too long... Li Lei, come on, the place is here. Go meet everyone and say a few words."
Conte opened the door.
A noisy restaurant appeared in front of us, with three long seats crowded with people on both sides, and tables filled with hot and delicious dishes and various drinks.
Bright glow tubes hang from the ceiling, flooding the venue with bright light.
Conte's arrival caused the atmosphere at the scene to freeze for half a second, followed by even louder calls.
"Head! You are finally here!"
"If you don't come, we will start eating!"
"Drink first! Have a drink first!"
Conte raised his arms high, came to the front of the crowd and shouted:
"Guys, let's have a drink or something later! Now, let's welcome the new teammate! Let's shout out his name together... Li Lei!"
"Li Lei! Li Lei!"
"Super awesome Imperial people!"
"Your eyes are blocked!"
"If I had Li Lei's eyes, I would definitely be able to walk sideways in Xiacheng District!"
The loud noises made Li Nuo's ears hurt, and almost caused a recurrence of his long-awaited social phobia...
Everyone, including Fars, stared at him closely, with either curiosity, admiration, slight fear, or well-hidden jealousy in their eyes.
Li Nuo saw these looks in his eyes.
He suddenly understood why he was a social phobic in the past.
He discerned the connotation of his gaze too quickly and too accurately.
It only takes a moment to notice the micro-expressions on the other person's face and vaguely perceive the other person's inner thoughts.
This is tantamount to throwing him many social problems that touch people's hearts.
In the past, when he didn't have extraordinary abilities, he would have to deal with these social problems carefully.
But now that he has a trump card and unknown strength, he doesn't have to go to such trouble.
Keep a safe distance from friendly people.
Use your fists to teach the offender to be polite.
Doing this is enough, and you don’t need to think too much about the feelings of irrelevant people.
Li Nuo regained his inner peace and was not disturbed by external objects at all.
He walked into the boiling restaurant calmly.
…
"The people of the Federation are really enthusiastic."
Under the bright moon, the door to "good money dreams" opens and closes.
Li Nuo came out of the door alone.
He raised his chin, faced the moon in the sky, and exhaled a stream of relief.
Unable to resist the warm welcome, he had to stay for a while before finding a chance to slip out.
In this world without computers and the Internet, without short videos and games, having a drunken dream after every life and death mission should be what the security team members look forward to the most.
Li Nuo smiled dumbly, shook his head, and walked towards the company building under the light of the street lamp.
Sector 7 is extremely quiet at night.
The crowds of people during the day are gone. Occasionally, there are a few motorcycles driving through the streets, and more are wild cats and dogs entrenched in the shadows of corners.
"How should I spend my three-day vacation? Go for a walk outside the city, hunt down some blind gang members, and loot supplies and soul fragments, or stay bored in the dormitory and practice "Soul Casting", Practice the meditation method of the Necronomicon sect.”
Li Nuo thought for a while and came up with an idea.
The relationship between searching for supplies and cultivation is the relationship between "cutting wood" and "sharpening the knife".
It is safer to improve the basic attributes first and then "cut wood".
"So I will stay in the dormitory for three days. No one will let me out except to eat and use the toilet."
Li Nuo quickened his pace.
He raised his hand and looked down at his thumb. His eyes fell on the alchemy mark on the fingertips, and thoughts surged in his mind.
"I currently have three false identities. One is a security member of Iron Thorn Shield, the other is a death experiment subject, and the third is Criminal Soldier No. 888 Lenno Jarvis.
"Considering that hostile wizards, the Empire's MI6, or even powerful alchemists who may be accidentally offended may appear in the future, I'd better prepare a few more false identities and apply them layer by layer. Even if I can't defeat the enemy, You can also escape by pretending to be dead with the help of a fake identity.
"Compared with the identity card, I think the alchemy mark made by the great alchemist is easier to convince my enemies.
"Well, it seems that the forged alchemy mark must also be added to the plan."
Li Nuo also knew of two other identity-marking magic effects similar to alchemical marks.
One is the "Mark of Resentment" of the Necromancer Sect, which allows the mindless undead of the Resentful Sect to ignore him.
The other is the "Wizard's Seal" mastered by Greensau, the wizard of the Death Society.
Greensau's wizard mark consists of three parts:
The emblem of the wizarding faction in the wizarding church, the personal mark of the leading professor, and the personal mark designed by Greensau himself.
It is worth mentioning that among these three components, only Greensau's personal imprint is complete, while the other two components are seriously missing.
Li Nuo also couldn't find the missing part of the imprint in Greensau's memory.
There is no doubt that it was some kind of majestic magical power that erased things that should not exist in Greensau's memory when he died suddenly.
And so on:
The specific scene and teaching content of the "online teaching", the appearance of the lecturer, the specific identity and appearance of the senior leaders of the death association, etc.
Therefore, the "mark" thing is very important in this world.
It is definitely one of the important props to prove your identity.
Crack it, hey hey, then he Li Nuo can be Greensau, the Great Sage of Alchemy, or someone else from other wizarding forces, or he can be Kai'Sa... uh... wait, forget about women's clothing...
In short, any magic props that can achieve the effect of matryoshka dolls must be paid attention to.
Li Nuo didn't think so just to give himself multiple escape routes.
During the day, he used deconstruction techniques to buy a bookstore for free, which gave him a vague plan.
If he could solve the problem of force identity and blend into each force, wouldn't he be able to use the knowledge in it for free?
In the process of deconstruction, there is no external phenomenon or movement.
As long as the identity is settled, all problems will be solved.
What follows is rolling dividends.
Knowledge is priceless, and acquiring knowledge is extremely expensive.
Li Nuo may not be the creator of knowledge, but he can be the porter of knowledge.
Sell the knowledge gained through prostitution to those who need it.
This is undoubtedly a violent business with light assets, high turnover, fast realization, strong sales volume, low cost and high returns.
Li Nuo had a premonition...
He may not be the most powerful in the world in the future, but he will definitely be the most knowledgeable...
And it all starts with deconstructing the alchemical mark on the thumb.
Li Nuo calmed down, stared at the mark, and threw out the deconstruction technique.
But before he could check the system messages, a cold light suddenly shot out from the alley he was passing by!
Li Nuo's hair suddenly stood up and he dodged sideways.
With a "stab" sound, the cold light grazed his waist and cut off the lanyard of his holster.
The only firearm on his body rolled to the ground. Just as Li Nuo was about to pick it up, two more cold rays came. The first one pushed the firearm away, and the second one pointed directly at the back of his hand.
Seeing that the cold light was about to fall on the back of his hand, Li Nuo thought of the arm movements in "Soul Casting Technique" and subconsciously followed the instinctive guidance of his body to forcefully rotate his shoulders and arms.
His arms twisted like an overturned python, passing the cold light in a weird posture.
"Ding Dong."
The cold light failed and hit the street tiles. It rolled twice and stopped in place, but it was a cold wolf-fang dart.
"A member of the Bulldog Gang?"
Li Nuo had no time to look at the sneak attacker and ducked behind the corner.
As soon as he gained a foothold by the wall, a slender, slightly curved dagger stabbed him from the other side of the corner.
There was a furry hand on the handle of the dagger, and it looked like the alchemist from the Bulldog Gang was attacking him.
The attacker probably didn't mean to kill him.
Neither the previous wolf fang darts nor the dagger stabbing at the shoulder were aimed at Li Nuo's vitals.
Li Nuo guessed the attacker's intention while twisting his waist and pulling his upper body to avoid the dagger.
He leaned against the wall, took several steps, and retreated sideways.
The attacker's dagger missed and struck the wall with a clang, leaving a cloud of sparks.
Well-proportioned thighs and a perfectly curved waist emerged from behind the wall, followed by a furry upper body with feminine features, and a cat face that surprised Li Nuo.
This is not a "wolf guard", but an alchemical weapon related to "cats".
When Li Nuo watched "Tom and Jerry" before, he still wondered why Tom was fascinated by the white cat. Now he knows the answer.
It turns out that there really is a charming catwoman with a beautiful body!
And it’s furry all over, with golden-orange hair!
If Furikong had been present, he wouldn't have fainted from joy...
Li Nuo is not Free Control.
He remained as calm as he should have been.
He stared closely at the movements of the assassin's hand, narrowly avoiding the dagger in the opponent's hand, and at the same time shouted at the top of his lungs:
"save…"
Before he could finish spitting out the first byte, the catwoman opened her mouth slightly and spewed out thick pink mist.
The thick pink mist rushed towards Li Nuo like a sharp arrow, straight into Li Nuo's face.
Li Nuo swallowed the words on his lips, quickly held his breath, covered his mouth and nose, and moved back faster.
"Is this catwoman testing my identity? Or does she want to kidnap me?"
There was no trace of panic in his eyes under the sunglasses, and Li Nuo threw the deconstruction technique at the female catman.
【system information:】
[You are about to launch the deconstruction technique on the "unknown extraordinary person". 】
[It is estimated that 17,000 energy points will be consumed to reach 100% deconstruction completion. 】
"Well, she really didn't want to kill me. The consumption of 17,000 energy points is 7,000 points more than Counter. Such a person uses all his strength to launch a sneak attack, and I may have to use a "magic shield" to survive. So what's your purpose, Mewman? …Are you here for my right eye? "
Li Nuo leaned back to let the dagger stab his ear, raised his right hand, and touched the frame of the glasses.
The catwoman's left hand shook, and she shot a wolf fang dart towards Li Nuo's right hand.
Li Nuo had anticipated it and dodged this cold hidden weapon in time.
Although he was interrupted from lifting the glasses frame, he was not anxious in his heart, but became calmer.
So far, only those who have Iron Thorn Shield know that when he activates his extraordinary ability, he has to lift up his glasses frame to expose his right eye.
The catwoman in front of me also knew this.
Then there are nothing more than two situations:
one:
The catwoman comes from the Iron Thorn Shield, or is a force closely related to the Iron Thorn Shield, enough to find out Li Nuo's signature moves.
She appeared here to test Li Nuo's true identity.
two:
A spy appeared in Iron Thorn Shield, and he leaked information about Li Nuo to rival gangs or other forces. The catwoman may be here to capture Li Nuo alive.
No matter which situation it is, it strengthens Li Nuo's judgment:
It was his disguised extraordinary ability that attracted this meow man.
"Hey, I didn't expect that the false identity I set up would attract attention so quickly. Who are you?"
Li Nuo smiled secretly in his heart.
Since the opponent hasn't put out all his strength, let's just use it up first.
Two figures entangled in the deserted street, advancing and retreating, chasing each other through the cross streets.
There was a hint of impatience on the face of the female cat-woman, a cold light suddenly appeared in her jewel-like eyes, and the attack in her hands was fierce.
Her movements of wielding the dagger suddenly accelerated, dragging out afterimages under the street lights.
The tip of the dagger showed a cold light, and in a flurry of feints, it stabbed Li Nuo's lower body.
Li Nuo only felt a cold feeling on his legs.
He knew he couldn't hold back.
Li Nuo activated the "Fear Technique" directly through the lenses of his sunglasses.
Transparent lightning shot out, pointing at the catwoman's face.
But he saw a wisp of white moonlight appear out of thin air, hovering in front of the female catman, blocking the transparent lightning.
Li Nuo's eyes narrowed slightly, feeling a little surprised.
The white moonlight neutralized the transparent lightning, and the two disappeared without a trace.
The catwoman retracted her dagger and retreated slowly.
There was an inexplicable smile on her lips, as if she had achieved her goal.
"I will come to you again, Li Lei. Let's talk next time."
The catwoman faced Li Nuo and moved backwards. The golden-orange hair on her body became brighter and brighter in the moonlight.
Her figure gradually became transparent, as if she was about to activate some extraordinary ability with an invisibility effect.
Li Nuo tilted his head slightly, with a calm expression. He seemed to be watching the other party leave, but in fact he was muttering in his heart.
"Did I let you go? Kitty."
